Other People's Blogs

Sometimes I read other people's blogs.

Sometimes I don't.

These are some of the reasons why sometimes I don't read other people's blogs:

I forget. Sometimes people tell me about blogs that I should read, and so I read them. And then even if I find them mostly funny and think 'yep, this is a mostly funny blog, I should keep reading it' I forget to bookmark it or add it to my favourites.  I normally forget because when I read other people's blogs I am usually at work but instead of working I am reading other people's blogs. And then someone interrupts and asks me a question relating to work so I have to answer the question. Quite often it's not a simple question so I have to make sure I don't just give a simple answer. So by the time the question is sufficiently answered I have forgotten about the other persons blog I was reading...... highly frustrating.

They are boring. Some people's blogs are really really really boring, really boring. Which lead me to think about my blog. I wonder if people find my stories about Brown and Orange boring. Then I realised that if you find my stories about Brown and Orange boring then you are probably boring and have some issues and shit that you need to sort out. I'm not a psychologist so I can't help you with that. Although I can offer one piece of advise:

Be less boring.

But just in case people do find my stories about Brown and Orange boring I have decided after my year long hiatus to expand my blog and include other things.... like writing about other people's blogs.

This is what makes a good blog:

It has to be mostly funny

That's about it, I'm not overly picky.

These are some blogs that I do remember to read, 3 exactly:

www.toothpastefordinner.com
www.nataliedee.com
www.theoatmeal.com

They all have two common themes:

They are mostly funny
They have drawings

Drawings in blogs are important, especially if they are mostly funny drawings. I would like to add drawings to my blog except there is a problem.....

I CAN'T DRAW WORTH SHIT

If I could draw worth shit I would be a drawer, not a writer. But since I've said that drawings in blogs are important I feel that I should include a drawing. So I drew this:


This is a drawing of my favourite time. It is my favourite time because:

They are all odd numbers. I prefer odd numbers to even numbers
This is a time when I am mostly awake in both the am and the pm every day

I wanted to make it a mostly funny drawing. This is a mostly funny drawing because:

It's in colour
It's not in the exact middle of the whiteboard
It's slightly off centre

So there you have it. My blog about other people's blogs is complete..... for now.  Perhaps I will stick to adding photos instead. Because photos are okay too.....
